1 Some good stuff.

At one time, 35 years ago, IT was a slightly right of center, mostly libertarian, freewheeling industry that created value. Now, it has largely been taken over by the midwit Democrat managerial caste and hangers-on living off the work of people far their better. Or by right-place right-time millionaires who think their money signifies that they are polymaths.

When Apple had no environmental department, they were massive innovators. Nowadays, they spend billions on one, and are like GM in the 1970s.

While there is much to like in this manifesto, do not forget that people who have calculated they will grift more from a centralized, globalized bureaucratic state will kill millions of other human beings to prevent their magic paychecks from being diminished or removed, and they typically inhabit positions where they have access to police, taxation, military, and regulatory powers way in excess of their numbers.

Buckle up.
